Francelle -- I'm with you on the pale color, but if you like its form and branching, why not keep working with it as a breeder for rebloom? -- Griff

Question: Does Anna Belle Babson carry rebloom genes? Here are two pictures of a seedling from Appleblossom Days X Anna Belle Babson. I selected it as the best of an not very auspicious bunch two years ago. Three times since then I have taken a shovel to send it after its siblings, but each time something stopped me. It is a vigorous grower. Two weeks ago I dug one of its five clumps then started admiring its nicely branched stalks. Yesterday after returning from our cabin, I found it blooming again. I?m amazed.

My problem with it is its pale color. It has no garden presence. What do you think?
